Judge Polly Webber on “Why Immigration is Key to America’s Future”
December 20, 2007 @ 7:30 am - 9:00 am PST
Immigration Judge Polly Webber will discuss one of the hottest topics today: Immigration in America. Although Judge Webber can’t take sides, she will shed light on the issues behind the guest worker program, temporary professional workers, and fingerprinting of visitors to the US as well as proposals for driver’s licenses for illegal aliens. She will also discuss both the legal and human side of immigration cases in court. There will likely be a lively question-and-answer period. So don’t miss it!
